About our sponsor: One Giant Leap Australia realises that for Australia to reach its full potential in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM), we need to ensure we are developing a future workforce equipped with the diverse and dynamic set of skills that will meet the needs of employers in these developing and innovative industries.

Building and maintaining student interest and aspiration in STEM cannot be achieved by schools alone. Parents and the broader community, industry, all levels of governments and the tertiary education sector are all key stakeholders in working towards achieving a strong STEM sector in Australia.

In recognition of this, One Giant Leap Australia has forged strong working relationships and partnerships with a range of educational institutions and providers; local, state and national government agencies; STEM-based companies; aeronautical and astronomical researchers and scientists and other community-based organisations.
